At JPL, I contributed to V&V (validation and verification) data analysis of sensors and actuators on the Sample Caching System on the...

As a birthday present for a friend, I prototyped a simple 434 MHz radio-communication circuit to wirelessly activate a buzzer. There are...

I designed a controllable permanent magnet gripper using the concepts of magnetic fringing and variable reluctance paths. In 2.007,...

As powertrain lead for the Model Year 2019 vehicle, I redesigned the motor and differential mounting and transmission system to be...

I assisted in the construction of a two-motor dynamometer to test electric motors under a load of up to ~20 kW, and I analyzed data from...

I evaluated the specs of 350+ motors from 80+ companies and used simulation to select the optimal product for MIT FSAE's 2019 front...

As an intern at RealTime Robotics, I selected and packaged fans to cool a motion planning FPGA board dissipating 22 W. Reduced junction...

At Realtime Robotics, I created URDF files and coordinate transforms for a set of obstacles, resulting in lifelike robotic arm scenarios...

I designed and machined aluminum mounts for hall effect wheel speed sensors. I assisted in the testing and electrical debugging of the...

I manufactured aluminum wheel hubs for the 2018 vehicle using a CNC lathe and mill. I held a tolerance of .0005" on critical bearing...

As part of an independent study arrangement my senior year of high school, I built a PID controlled magnetic levitation system on...

I am working on an electromechanical device to help a friend with muscular dystrophy play the French horn. Because she has little finger...

I built this conveyor belt system at LEGO Mindstorms Advanced Robotics Camp at Penn State, using the EV3 Educational Platform. At the end...

This is an autonomous marble sorter that aims to separate marbles of different materials. I wrote code in RobotC to control many servo...

These are the parts to my popsicle stick that I 3D printed at Lehigh University's Summer Engineering Institute. Users place a popsicle in...

Levitation has always fascinated me. Earnshaw’s theorem states that magnetic levitation is impossible without specific control devices,...

This poster summarizes my team's research last summer at Lehigh University on the feasibility of nuclear fusion as an energy source. We...

One day in tenth grade, as I waited for the rest of my calculus class to finish a test I spotted a mysterious button on my calculator...

This is a winch system that I designed. The user turns the handle (1), thereby turning the wormgear (2) because they are on the same...

This is a circuit I made on a breadboard that counts from 2 to 6 repeatedly. It uses NAND ICs and a seven segment display. Each segment...
